Puritan's Pride L-Arginine 500 mg 100 capsules

The dietary supplement Puritan's Pride contains 500 mg of L-arginine, an endogenous amino acid, meaning the body can produce it itself. Unfortunately, there is often not enough for it to perform all its functions. In the body, it supports the functioning of the circulatory system, liver, and kidneys. It improves the nutrition of tissues and muscles.

L-arginine is involved in nitrogen metabolism during the Krebs cycle and participates in the synthesis of creatinine and other important proteins.

This amino acid also promotes the synthesis of nitric oxide, which is a vasodilator compound - it causes the dilation of blood vessels. Thus, L-arginine in adequate amounts improves endothelial function and may lead to a reduction in blood pressure.

Furthermore, L-arginine supplementation may have a significant effect on certain indicators of the glycemic profile, such as fasting blood glucose and glycated hemoglobin.

In conclusion, the L-arginine dietary supplement from Puritan's Pride is a very safe natural amino acid that has many beneficial health properties. The Puritan's Pride product has a simple and safe formulation, without unnecessary artificial substances.
